Looking for other suggestion or a way to script adding an exception to the IE popup blocker.
Here is the situation.
We have a domain MyDomain.com that is where our core SP2010 site sites. Then we have 2 other domains that direct to other applications within our organization. ie site1.MyDomain.com and site2.MyDomain.com. We have a page in the SP2010 site that loads an iframe containing a table of contents page from site1.MyDomain.com. clicking one of the links will popup a window with detail information from site1.MyDomain.com for your selection. Then links on that popup page takes you to site2.MyDomain.com. The problem is that if the user has their popup blocker enabled and has their banner notification turned off then they are not notified that a popup was triggered.
I would like to be able to run a script on the home page of the SP2010 page to detect if *.MyDomain.com has been added to the popup blocker exclusion list if not then prompt the to add the site. I don't know if it's possible but any feed back would be greatly appreciated. We are looking for a solution that would consider the end user to be a blathering idiot and still have this work. You know how marketers business requirements are.

I am creating a website and on the website, I need about 10-20 more tabs on the user device,
I know how to do this with javascript but the user can disable javascript on the browser which basically stops the entire point of the website, is there any way to do it without javascript (maybe sending a header to Chrome or something that opens a website in a tab)?
There is no way to do that without JavaScript to open multiple tabs at once.
You can make a link open a new tab with the target attribute when clicked by the user, but that is limited to one new tab for one user interaction.
maybe sending a header to Chrome or something that opens a website in a tab
Even if that would be possible with some kind of trick, it would likely be fixed in an update in the browsers, because this will this would be definitely be abused by dubious websites.
Well, the pure HTML way to do that is through the target attribute of any hyperlinked element (A, FRAME, FORM), which shall contain the name of the window that should receive the content of the hyperjump.
Example:
<!--These two hyperlinks redirect the URLs to the same tab-->
local clients
inernational clients
<!--This hyperlink redirect the URL to its own tab-->
providers
Anyway, I warn you not to abuse of this form of forced navigation, because it can chase your user out of your website: The user should be left as free as possible to chose to open or not new tabs/windows. And 10-20 tabs seems to me an overwhelming amount of tabs.
I'm currently working on chrome extension and I'm dealing with a content injection problem.
In my extension when user clicks the button inside the popup, he has possibility to choose DIV from the webpage he's currently on and then he can return back to popup to choose options for that chosen DIV.
The problem is that I can't force the popup to be open when user clicks outside it (actually I can with open popup console, but it's not a solution here) and the popup.html is reloading every time extension is shown to user.
So I came up with an idea that I can inject a popup into an iframe in the webpage to have control over it's behaviour but I found similar solutions only connected with chrome extensions based on react. Is it possible without any framework?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have a Chrome extension that does word substitutions on pages. Currently I have a popup that opens when I click on a browser action which lets the user control whether or not to perform the substitutions. I also have a background script running that sends a message to content scripts when a page refresh happens using a chrome.tabs.onUpdated event handler.
My problem is that when I refresh the page no substitutions are made unless the popup is open (which is only possible when I have the inspect elements panel open on the popup, because otherwise the popup closes when I refresh).
Has anybody had experience with this behavior before? What additional instrumentation should I add to diagnose the problem? Is there a different extension architecture/code arrangement I should be using?
Thanks in advance!
If you use localStorage on a given page you can probably store whether or not to substitute words. I think refreshing a page is similar to opening a new tab, so your script gets reinjected/reloaded rather than staying open and receiving an onupdate message.
I'm a writing a chrome extension that allows users to do the following:
Load data into the popup when the icon is clicked
Change the data in the popup based on actions the user takes on the page
Append elements to the DOM of the page based on actions taken in the popup
It seems that I can accomplish 1 with a script in the browser_action field of the manifest, but perhaps I need a page_action script for 2 and 3?
The core of the problem is that I do not know exactly how browser_actions and page_actions differ from each other. My limited understanding is that page actions allow data populated in the popup to be manipulated dynamically. Is this true? I cannot find an explanation about the differences that makes sense to me.
Browser Action is a type of extensions that use icon on the right of address bar. You click on that icon and popup page is loading. Those extensions work regardless of page currently opened.
Page Action only works while certain webpage(s) is opened. It displays as an icon inside the address bar (near page URL). This is for extensions only working on certain websites.
If you want to make your extension working on every website, you should use browser_action.

Hi I am opening an external website in my pop window. I would like to disable certain links in that popup.
i.e. I am opening http://www.yahoo.com in pop and I want to disable some links in that pop-up so that who ever visit yahoo.com using my website, will not able to click on some links...
Is it possible? any idea?
It is impossible to run JavaScript on another domain because of the same origin policy. imagine someone opening up your bank account in a new window/frame and altering the links to transfer money to their account. ;)
You can screen scrape the content with your server and redisplay it, but you have to worry about proxying all of the relative links.
If you are creating a popup using the standard window.open you can manipulate the DOM of that document. See here for more information on how to do that (towards the bottom of the page). But this is fairly limiting to writing stuff to that page. I suppose you could render the link in an iframe and inject some javascript to manipulate it?
